The smooth melodies of [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mXwFnYU27Q]Micheal Bublé[/url] belted out of the speaker of the smart phone that lay on the bedside table as Iron busied himself with the task of unpacking. He had intentionally arrived earlier than needed so that he could get some of the unpacking done before the opening ceremony.  However the early arrival had other benefits that Iron enjoyed even more than that of having his unpacking done early chiefly that it meant he could avoid the arrival of the first years. It wasn’t that he had anything against the first years, it was just that after having been around for the arrival last year he was fairly certain it would play out in the same general manner each and every year moving forward. Beyond dodging the arrival of the first years Iron’s early arrival also meant that he had first choice of the beds.  This happened to be a choice he exercised most happily as he lay back on the bed having just finished storing the last of his clothes in his armoire. After a few moments of laying arms spread wide with the sound of [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEBlaMOmKV4]Sam Cooke[/url] serenading him Iron checked his watch and decided it was time to get a move on.  Standing he grabbed his jacket and courier bag, adjust his tie in the mirror, slipped in a pair of earbuds and made his way out to the thoroughfare.

As he made his way through the crowds of new and returning students Iron hummed along to the music playing in his ears. Not having need of the map nor the need to stop and ask for directions it was a quick jaunt from the dorms to the train station where the student body had been asked to congregate for the opening ceremony. Arriving somewhat early Iron found himself a seat near the back of the room, just a few feet in front of two other students who had both positioned themselves against the back wall. Iron gave the girls a curt nod acknowledging their presence before settling into his seat, digging into his bag and pulling out a sketchbook. With his sketchbook out, and [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ehm4HLnr-FQ]Micheal Bublé[/url] once again crooning into his ear Iron resumed work on the design of his newest automaton.
